Here is a web application that takes a user's birthday and calculates the day of the week they were born and then depending on their gender outputs their Akan Name.
Akan names are derived from Ghanian culture. Frequently in Ghana, children are given their first name as a 'day name' which corresponds to the day in the week they were born. Here are Ghanian day names.
| Day | Male Name | Female Name |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday | Kwasi | Akoswa |
| Monday | Kwadoso | Adwoa |
| Tuesday | Kwabena | Abenaa |
| Wednesday | Kwaku | Akua |
| Thursday | Yaw | Yaa |
| Friday | Kofi | Afua |
| Saturday | Kwame | Ama |

DATEDIFF Function
DATEDIFF returns the difference between the date parts of two date or time expressions.
Syntax
DATEDIFF ( datepart, {date|timestamp}, {date|timestamp} )
Arguments
- datepart
-
The specific part of the date value (year, month, or day, for example) that the function operates on. For more information, see Dateparts for Date or Time Stamp Functions.
Specifically, DATEDIFF determines the number of datepart boundaries that are crossed between two expressions. For example, if you are calculating the difference in years between two dates,
12-31-2008
and01-01-2009
, the function returns 1 year despite the fact that these dates are only one day apart. If you are finding the difference in hours between two time stamps,01-01-2009 8:30:00
and01-01-2009 10:00:00
, the result is 2 hours. - date|timestamp
-
A date or timestamp columns or expressions that implicitly convert to a date or time stamp. The expressions must both contain the specified date part. If the second date or time is later than the first date or time, the result is positive. If the second date or time is earlier than the first date or time, the result is negative.
Return Type
BIGINT
Examples
Find the difference, in number of weeks, between two literal date values:
select datediff(week,'2009-01-01','2009-12-31') as numweeks; numweeks ---------- 52 (1 row)
Find the difference, in number of quarters, between a literal value in the past and today's date. This example assumes that the current date is June 5, 2008. You can name dateparts in full or abbreviate them. The default column name for the DATEDIFF function is DATE_DIFF.
select datediff(qtr, '1998-07-01', current_date); date_diff ----------- 40 (1 row)
This example joins the SALES and LISTING tables to calculate how many days after they were listed any tickets were sold for listings 1000 through 1005. The longest wait for sales of these listings was 15 days, and the shortest was less than one day (0 days).
select priceperticket, datediff(day, listtime, saletime) as wait from sales, listing where sales.listid = listing.listid and sales.listid between 1000 and 1005 order by wait desc, priceperticket desc; priceperticket | wait ---------------+------ 96.00 | 15 123.00 | 11 131.00 | 9 123.00 | 6 129.00 | 4 96.00 | 4 96.00 | 0 (7 rows)
This example calculates the average number of hours sellers waited for all ticket sales.
select avg(datediff(hours, listtime, saletime)) as avgwait from sales, listing where sales.listid = listing.listid; avgwait --------- 465 (1 row)

The palace still shook occasionally as the earth rumbled in memory, groaned as if it would deny what had happened. Bars of sunlight cast through rents in the walls made motes of dust glitter where they yet hung in the air. Scorch-marks marred the walls, the floors, the ceilings. Broad black smears crossed the blistered paints and gilt of once-bright murals, soot overlaying crumbling friezes of men and animals, which seemed to have attempted to walk before the madness grew quiet. The dead lay everywhere, men and women and children, struck down in attempted flight by the lightings that had flashed down every corridor, or seized by the fires that had stalked them, or sunken into stone of the palace, the stones that had flowed and sought, almost alive, before stillness came again. In odd counterpoint, colorful tapestries and paintings, masterworks all, hung undisturbed except where bulging walls had pushed them awry. Finely carved furnishings, inlaid with ivory and gold, stood untouched except where rippling floors had toppled them. The mind twisting had struck at the core, ignoring peripheral things.
Lews Therin Telamon wandered the palace, deftly keeping his balance when the earth heaved. “Ilyena! My love, where are you?” The edge of his pale gray cloak trailed through blood as he stepped across the body of a woman, her golden-haired beauty marred by the horror of her last moments, her still-open eyes frozen in disbelief. “Where are you, my wife? Where is everyone hiding?”
His eyes caught his own reflection in a mirror hanging askew from bubbled marble. His clothes had been regal once, in gray and scarlet and gold; now the finely-woven cloth, brought by merchants from across the World Sea, was torn and dirty, thick with the same dust that covered his hair and skin. For a moment he fingered the symbol on his cloak, a circle half white and half black, the colors separated by a sinuous line. It meant something, that symbol. But the embroidered circle could not hold his attention long. He gazed at his own image with as much wonder.  Lews Therin began to chuckle, then threw back his head; his laughter echoed down the lifeless halls.
“Ilyena, my love! Come to me, my wife. You must see this.”
Behind him the air rippled, shimmered, solidified into a man who looked around, his mouth twisting briefly with distaste. Not so tall as Lews Therin, he was clothed all in black, save for the snow-white lace at his throat and the silverwork on the turned-down tops of his thigh-high boots. He stepped carefully, handling his cloak fastidiously to avoid brushing the dead. The floor trembled with aftershocks, but his attention was fixed on the man staring into the mirror and laughing.
“Lord of the Morning,” he said, “I have come for you.”
The laughter cut off as if it had never been, and Lews Therin turned, seeming unsurprised. “Ah, a guest. Have you the Voice, stranger? It will soon be time for the Singing, and here all are welcome to take part. Ilyena, my love, we have a guest. Ilyena, where are you?”
The black-clad man’s eyes widened, darted to the body of the golden-haired woman, then back to Lews Therin. “Shai’tan take you, does the taint already have you so far in its grip?”
“That name. Shai—” Lews Therin shuddered and raised a hand as though to ward off something. “You mustn’t say that name. It is dangerous.”
“So you remember that much, at least. Dangerous for you, fool, not for me. What else do you remember?  I will not let it end with you swaddled in unawareness! Remember!”
For a moment Lews Therin stared at his raised hand, fascinated by the patterns of grime. Then he wiped his hand on his even dirtier coat and turned his attention back to the other man. “Who are you? What do you want?”
The black-clad man drew himself up arrogantly. “Once I was called Elan Morin Tedronai, but now—”
“Betrayer of Hope.” It was a whisper from Lews Therin. Memory stirred, but he turned his head, shying away from it.
“So you do remember some things. Yes, Betrayer of Hope. So have men named me, just as they named you Dragon, but unlike you I embrace the name. They gave me the name to revile me, but I will yet make them kneel and worship it. What will you do with your name? After this day, men will call you Kinslayer. What will you do with that?”
Lews Therin frowned down the ruined hall. “Ilyena should be here to offer a guest welcome,” he murmured absently, then raised his voice. “Ilyena, where are you?” The floor shook; the golden-haired woman’s body shifted as if in answer to his call. His eyes did not see her.
Elan Morin grimaced. “Look at you,” he said scornfully. “Once you stood first among the Servants. Once you wore the Ring of Tamyrlin, and sat in the High Seat. Once you summoned the Nine Rods of Dominion. Now look at you! A pitiful, shattered wretch. But it is not enough. You humbled me in the Hall of Servants. You defeated me at the Gates of Paaran Disen. But I am the greater, now.  When you die, your last thought will be the full knowledge of your defeat, of how complete and utter it is.  She will give me the rough side of her tongue if she thinks I have been hiding a guest from her. I hope you enjoy conversation, for she surely does. Be forewarned. Ilyena will ask you so many questions you may end up telling her everything you know.”
 “A pity for you,” he mused, “that one of your Sisters is not here. I was never very skilled at Healing, and I follow a different power now. But even one of them could only give you a few lucid minutes, if you did not destroy her first. What I can do will serve as well, for my purposes.” His sudden smile was cruel. “But I fear Shai’tan’s healing is different from the sort you know. Be healed, Lews Therin!” He extended his hands, and the light dimmed as if a shadow had been laid across the sun.
Pain blazed in Lews Therin, and he screamed, a scream that came from his depths, a scream he could not stop. Fire seared his marrow; acid rushed along his veins. He toppled backwards, crashing to the marble floor; his head struck the stone and rebounded. His heart pounded, trying to beat its way out of his chest, and every pulse gushed new flame through him. Helplessly he convulsed, thrashing, his skull a sphere of purest agony on the point of bursting. His hoarse screams reverberated through the palace.
Slowly, ever so slowly, the pain receded. The outflowing seemed to take a thousand years and left him twitching weakly, sucking breath through a raw throat. Another thousand years seemed to pass before he could manage to heave himself over, muscles like jellyfish, and shakily push himself up on hands and knees. His eyes fell on the golden-haired woman, and the scream that was ripped out of him dwarfed every sound he had made before. Tottering, almost falling, he scrabbled brokenly across the floor to her. It took every bit of his strength to pull her up into his arms. His hands shook as he smoothed her hair back from her staring face.
“Ilyena! Light help me, Ilyena!” His body curved around hers protectively, his sobs the full-throated cries of a man who had nothing left to live for. “Ilyena, no! No!”
“You can have her back, Kinslayer. The Great Lord of the Dark can make her live again, if you will serve him. If you will serve me.”
Lews Therin raised his head, and the black-clad man took an involuntary step back from that gaze. “Ten years, Betrayer,” Lews Therin said softly, the soft sound of steel being bared.  And now this. I will . . . ”
“Ten years! You pitiful fool! This war has not lasted ten years, but since the beginning of time. You and I have fought a thousand battles with the turning of the Wheel, a thousand times a thousand, and we will fight until time dies and the Shadow is triumphant!” He finished in a shout, with a raised fist, and it was Lews Therin’s turn to pull back, breath catching at the glow in the Betrayer’s eyes.
Carefully Lews Therin laid Ilyena down, fingers gently brushing her hair.  Prepare to—”
“Remember, you fool! Remember your futile attack on Great Lord of the Dark! Remember his counterstroke! Remember! Even now the Hundred Companions are tearing the world apart, and every day a hundred men more join them. What hand slew Ilyena Sunhair, Kinslayer? Not mine. Not mine.  Not mine, Kinslayer. Not mine. Remember, and know the price of opposing Shai’tan!”
Sudden sweat made tracks down Lews Therin’s face through the dust and dirt. He remembered, a cloudy memory like a dream of a dream, but he knew it true.
His howl beat at the walls, the howl of a man who had discovered his soul damned by his own hand, and he clawed at his face as if to tear away the sight of what he had done. Everywhere he looked his eyes found the dead. Torn they were, or broken or burned, or half-consumed by stone. Everywhere lay lifeless faces he knew, faces he loved. Old servants and friends of his childhood, faithful companions through the long years of battle. And his children. His own sons and daughters, sprawled like broken dolls, play stilled forever. All slain by his hand. His children’s faces accused him, blank eyes asking why, and his tears were no answer. The Betrayer’s laughter flogged him, drowned out his howls. He could not bear the faces, the pain. He could not bear to remain any longer. Desperately he reached out to the True Source, to tainted saidin, and he Traveled.
The land around him was flat and empty. A river flowed nearby, straight and broad, but he could sense there were no people within a hundred leagues. He was alone, as alone as a man could be while still alive, yet he could not escape memory. The eyes pursued him through the endless caverns of his mind. He could not hide from them. His children’s eyes. Ilyena’s eyes. Tears glistened on his cheeks as he turned his face to the sky.
“Light, forgive me!” He did not believe it could come, forgiveness. Not for what he had done. But he shouted to the sky anyway, begged for what he could not believe he could receive. “Light, forgive me!”
He was still touching saidin, the male half of the power that drove the universe, that turned the Wheel of Time, and he could feel the oily taint fouling its surface, the taint of the Shadow’s counterstroke, the taint that doomed the world. Because of him. Because in his pride he had believed that men could match the Creator, could mend what the Creator had made and they had broken. In his pride he had believed.
He drew on the True Source deeply, and still more deeply, like a man dying of thirst. Quickly he had drawn more of the One Power than he could channel unaided; his skin felt as if it were aflame. Straining, he forced himself to draw more, tried to draw it all.
“Light, forgive me! Ilyena!”
The air turned to fire, the fire to light liquefied. The bolt that struck from the heavens would have seared and blinded any eye that glimpsed it, even for an instant. From the heavens it came, blazed through Lews Therin Telamon, bored into the bowels of the earth. Stone turned to vapor at its touch. The earth thrashed and quivered like a living thing in agony. Only a heartbeat did the shining bar exist, connecting ground and sky, but even after it vanished the earth yet heaved like the sea in a storm. Molten rock fountained five hundred feet into the air, and the groaning ground rose, thrusting the burning spray ever upward, ever higher. From north and south, from east and west, the wind howled in, snapping trees like twigs, shrieking and blowing as if to aid the growing mountain ever skyward. Ever skyward.
At last the wind died, the earth stilled to trembling mutters. Of Lews Therin Telamon, no sign remained. Where he had stood a mountain now rose miles into the sky, molten lava still gushing from its broken peak. The broad, straight river had been pushed into a curve away from the mountain, and there it split to form a long island in its midst. The shadow of the mountain almost reached the island; it lay dark across the land like the ominous hand of prophecy. For a time the dull, protesting rumbles of the earth were the only sound.
On the island, the air shimmered and coalesced. The black-clad man stood staring at the fiery mountain rising out of the plain. His face twisted in rage and contempt. “You cannot escape so easily, Dragon. It is not done between us. It will not be done until the end of time.”
Then he was gone, and the mountain and the island stood alone. Waiting.
And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was as blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.
—from Aleth nin Taerin alta Camora,
The Breaking of the World.
Author unknown, the Fourth Age
And it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died. And men cried out to the Creator, saying, O Light of the Heavens, Light of the World, let the Promised One be born of the mountain, according to the prophecies, as he was in ages past and will be in ages to come. Let the Prince of the Morning sing to the land that green things will grow and the valleys give forth lambs. Let the arm of the Lord of the Dawn shelter us from the Dark, and the great sword of justice defend us. Let the Dragon ride again on the winds of time.
—from Charal Drianaan to Calamon,
The Cycle of the Dragon.

THE DEVIL'S OWN 1997 A film review by Timothy Voon Copyright 1997 Timothy Voon 1 :-) for the sadness of it all
Cast: Harrison Ford, Brad Pitt, Margaret Colin, Ruben Blades, Treat Williams, George Hearn, Natascha McElhone Director: Alan J. Pakula Screenplay: David Aaron Cohen & Vincent Patrick and Kevin Jarre based on a story by Kevin Jarre
Why does an Irish tale need to have a sad ending, when Irish jokes carry such moronic light heartedness? Probably because the IRA is no Irish man joke or simple laughing matter. Yes, this is a sad tale indeed. When a Irish lad (Brad Pitt) watches his father murdered before his eyes, he is forced to choose between forgetting or fighting back. In his world gone mad, he chooses to fight and exists only to strike again. In his living nightmare there are no winners or losers, only an ever rising death count. Revenge has an insatiable thirst for blood.
The boy grows into a man, and the man becomes a soldier in the Irish Republican Army. His journey leads him to the land of opportunities, where he must purchase weapons of warfare with which to hurt the enemy. Under the pretence of immigration, he finds board with the family of Irish policeman, Thomas O'Meara (Harrison Ford). Here he finds the father he lost, but can they remain friends? A fox cannot befriend a hound, as one is governed by the laws of instinct and the other by man. So the hunt begins, and the chase is intense, but we always know how the hunt will end.
So let me lighten this sad tale with an Irish Joke or two.
Why did the Irish man build a boat? So he could carry some missiles across the Atlantic to blow up the British.
Why did the Irish cop lie? Because he wanted to cover up the truth.
What did the Irish cop do with his bad conscience? He shot a friend through the heart.
Okay, okay so it's not very funny, but I'm not in the mood. Fine performances from a brooding Brad Pitt and ageing Harrison Ford, in this sad tale of Irish sorts. Anyone for some after dinner mints?

that there are many caveats to be aware of if you enable loose mode and that you're willingly choosing
to be spec incompliant.

?Babel assumes that all input code is an ES2015 module. ES2015 modules are implicitly strict mode so this means
that top-level this
is not window
in the browser nor is it exports
in node.
If you don't want this behaviour then you have the option of disabling the strict
transformer:
$ babel --blacklist strict script.js
require("babel").transform("code", { blacklist: ["strict"] });
PLEASE NOTE: If you do this you're willingly deviating from the spec and this may cause future interop issues.
See the strict transformer docs for more info.
Many issues plague current transpilers, Babel takes a unique approach to many aspects.
Many transpilers require a globally polluting polyfill and runtime. Babel has various ways to avoid this, including concise code that utilises minimal inline helpers as well as features such as runtime that enable library authors to utilise ES2015 methods without the aforementioned polyfill.
Babel cares immensely about your output code. Not only should it not be bound to a bulky runtime but it should always retain as much of the source formatting as possible (newlines and comments).
Source maps are critical in the context of transpiled languages. This enables you to seamlessly write and debug your code without worrying about what it turns into.
With support for ES2015 being implemented into engines at a rapid rate it's critical that certain transformations have the ability to be turned off.  Classes get supported in your target environment? Simply disable it and reap the benefits of all the other transformers.
The Babel feature set is very comprehensive, supporting every ES2015 syntactic feature. With built-in support for emerging standards such as Flow and JSX/React it makes it extremely easy to integrate.
Babel is very flexible in it's usage, it has support for an extensive range of build systems as well as for the browser, node and more!.
A module formatter is a transformer that turns exports and imports into their equivalent
target format. For example, the common
module formatter transforms
import { foo } from "bar";
into the CommonJS var foo = require("bar").foo;


For many years, I was one of the most active members of the community surrounding the iOS app Pythonista, a fantastic platform for mobile Python development, and one of the most powerful apps for developers on the iOS platform as a whole. During the time that I spent most heavily using the platform, I made several meaningful and well-used contributions to the software community surrounding the app, many of which took the form of libraries that brought new functionality to the app.
pythonista-theme-utils
is a utility I wrote for Pythonista that allows users to
retrieve information about the user's current editor theme and to automatically style user
interfaces to match the user's current editor theme. This is useful for the
authors of scripts that are designed to perform tasks within the editor. At the time this
script was written, this functionality was unavailable. However, just four days after I
published my code, the developer of the Pythonista app integrated this functionality directly
into the app, along with a credit to me in the release notes.
Another significant contribution I made to the community was the initial creation and
maintainence of the collaborative Pythonista-Tweaks
module, which aims to
collect in one place some general enhancements, extensions, and modifications to
Pythonista's behavior, and to generally fill in gaps in Pythonista's functionality by
querying Objective-C APIs.
Pictured is an example of functionality that Pythonista-Tweaks
enables. The
script pictured displays progress in real-time as a badge on the app icon, useful for
keeping users informed about the progress of long-running tasks even when the app is not
open.
Pythonista Cloud is an effort by me to create a full-fledged package manager for Pythonista which would allow downloading remote scripts and importing remote modules. The project is not complete, nor is it under active development at the moment, but it was a popular project; its components have gained loading... stars on GitHub.
The service consists of a REST API that communicates with an underlying CouchDB instance.
This allows authors to submit packages to the registry, and allows clients to query for
package information. The official client is a Python module called cloud
which
exposes a custom import handler capable of downloading modules on the fly or exposing cached
versions seamlessly. The goal is that users can simply replace an import x
statement with from cloud import x
and achieve the same behavior without having
to worry about whether the user has installed x
.


vocal.conf is a file for controlling the behavior of VOCALcomponents. Lines which begin with #are comments. Each line of the vocal.conf file consists of two parts. First, is the parameter name, which is typically in all caps. after that, a single space, which is followed by the value of that entry.
The following options are available in the vocal.conffile.

{% extends 'vesper/base.html' %} {% block head %}
Imports the specified metadata into this Vesper archive.
The metadata must be YAML text. The text can describe stations, devices (such as microphones and recorders), which devices were used at which stations during which time periods, and how the devices were connected (for example, which microphones were connected to which recorder channels). It can also describe processors and annotations. [Need to describe metadata YAML format in more detail, perhaps on another page that we link to here.]
Note that you can drag and drop a YAML file to the text area below to set the contents of the text area to the contents of the file.
Currently, some metadata imports (for example, ones that add detectors and/or classifiers) must be followed by a server restart to take full effect. We recommend restarting your server after every metadata import to avoid potential confusion.

Session 7: Attach the Arms and Test the Servos
In this session we will 3D-print the hood component (in an alternate color if desired) while we attach the arms to the torso and test the servos using the Robotis Dynamixel Wizard 2.0 application.
Parts:
- controller electronics assembly completed in Session 1
- head and torso completed in Session 4
- right arm assembly completed in Session 5
- left arm assembly completed in Session 6
- (2) 190MM servo cables
- (24) short plastic rivets
- (2) Servo Mount Plate 3D-printed in Session 4, the servo mount plates support servos' ID:005 and ID:009 (from the arm assemblies) attachment to the upper torso frame.
- Base 3D-printed in Session 4, the base supports the entire gestureBot. The tabs on the bottom of the base frame insert into the base to provide a stable platform as well as space to contain the controller electronics and USB3 hub.
Tools:
- plastic rivet tool
Procedure:
First, start 3D-printing the parts required for future sessions:
Second, attach the arms to the torso:
-
Attach the mount plate to servo ID:005 in the right arm assembly using (4) short rivets.
-
Attach the mount plate to servo ID:009 in the left arm assembly using (4) short rivets.
-
Route the cable connecting servo ID:005 and ID:006 through the space between the bottom-rear rivet mount holes of servo ID:005.
-
Mount the right arm assembly to the upper torso frame using (8) short rivets.
-
Route the cable connecting servo ID:009 and ID:010 through the space between the bottom-rear rivet mount holes of servo ID:009.
-
Mount the left arm assembly to the upper torso frame using (8) short rivets.
-
Connect the (2) 190mm cables to the front-side connectors of servos ID:005 and ID:009.
-
Route the (2) 190mm cables connected to servos ID:005 and ID:009 along with the 130mm cable connected to servo ID:004 down through the hip cover and the square hole in the top of the base frame.
-
With the USB3 hub power cable unplugged, insert the cables connected to servo ID:004, ID:005, and ID:009 into the three open connectors on the servo controller PC board.
-
Place the controller electronics and USB3 hub into the base, with the USB terminal block resting in the right-side slot.
-
Insert the large curved tabs on the bottom of the base frame into the slots on the base, with the open end of the base toward the rear.
-
Plug the power connector into the USB3 Hub and observe all of the servos flash red LED's.
Third, test the servos:
- With the USB3 hub power cable connected, insert the USB3 cable into the PC.
-
On the PC, launch the Dynamixel Wizard 2.0 application.
-
Select the Scan button on the top-level menu and allow the dialog box to complete its scan and close by itself.
-
Observe all twelve of the servo ID's listed in the left-side panel.
-
Test control and movement of each servo by selecting them one-by-one in the left-side list, then using the upper-right-side servo UI to turn torque on, move the servo slightly (approximately plus or minus 5 degrees), and then turn torque back off. Tip: Be cautious when manually commanding the servos to move. The gestureBot assembly will physically limit the servos' rotation due to body part collisions. If a servo is driven into a collision, it may cause damage to the parts or the servo. As a protective feature, the servos may automatically shutdown in these cases and require a reset by unplugging the USB hub from the computer and then the power cable from the USB hub, waiting 15 seconds, then first plugging the hub power and then the USB connection to the PC back in. Also, do not change the servos from 'Joint' to 'Motor' mode. If driven in Motor mode the servos will wind their connection cables causing damage or automatic shutdown.

Trading cold weather for more light snow -Dana
by Dana FultonMADISON, Wis. - Temperatures Tuesday morning dropped into the single digits throughout southern Wisconsin; Platteville officially start the day below zero. A low of 4 degrees in Madison breaks the daily low record for Nov. 12 of 7 degrees set in 1986.
Now that the record cold comes to an end, attention is shifting to the next opportunity for light snowfall to pass over southern Wisconsin.
Skies will become mostly cloudy by Wednesday morning and will stay as such throughout the day.
Light snowfall will begin late Wednesday morning northwest of Madison and will continue through the afternoon.
Widespread snow is expected during the evening commute.
Drivers should prepare for a longer-than-average drive home. Snow will gradually taper from west to east late in the day.
Accumulation totals will fall between 1 and 3 inches for most of southern Wisconsin.
Lesser amounts are expected north and west of La Crosse and in northern Illinois.
Temperatures will fall into the teens Wednesday night and will rise to the low 30s Thursday morning. With mostly sunny skies, some melting may occur Thursday afternoon.
Temperatures will again fall into the teens Thursday night; light ice may be a concern on paths and sidewalks Friday morning.
The weather will moderate a little by the weekend. Temperatures will climb above freezing both Saturday and Sunday.


Discourse now allows embedding comments on multi-author blogs. Previously one discourse username was used to create all blog article topics created by Discourse. This approach works well for single author blogs but not so well for multi-author ones. Since, topics are not created using the discourse username of the author, new comment author notifications are not automatically sent out.
This led me to write the recently merged Discourse feature that allows you to specify the author’s discourse username for each article published on a multi-author blog.
Discourse has two methods for creating topics for blog posts
- RSS or Atom feed
- Readability algorithm
When any forum users comment on the blog article forum topic the comment will appear on the blog as well.
Configure embedding
- Install Discourse. It is preferred that you use discourse_docker.
- Navigate to Embedding Site Settings http://discourse.yourdomain.com/admin/site_settings/category/embedding
- Configure the settings being sure to specify the following
- In your blog template include the following JavaScript snippet and

tag where you would like comments to appear.

Caveats
- Set
discourseUrl
so that it points to the root URL of your Discourse forum. - Set
discourseUserName
to author’s discourse username. - Set
discourseEmbedUrl
to the canonical URL of the page where you are embedding Discourse. This URL must be unique otherwise multiple topics for the same article will be created.
- Set
- Reload your blog to allow changes to take effect. Discourse will begin creating topics for your blog posts in your forum and comments should now be visible on your blog.


Customer Analytics: Reduce Customer Churn
Use machine learning to make recommendations
on how to improve customer health
Problem
Customer churn is analagous to filling a water bucket with a bunch of holes. If you cant plug the holes, your water bucket is not going to fill up.
Solution
Machine learning (Deep Learning with an Artificial Neural Network) is a highly accurate solution that enables customer health evaluation before customers leave.
Communication
The Customer Scorecard is a way to communicate the Deep Learning model in a way that decision makers can easily digest. The end result is that insights can be worked into decision making process.

Viewing Options
Viewing options control how you visualize what's going on with the program.
One of these, obviously, is found by using Tools -> Font. This allows you to set all of the font options for the main message area of Magenta. In order for the font to change, however, the current contents of the chat area must be cleared. Keep this in mind, and if there's anything you want to save, save it before you clear out the area. Memory-based logs are unaffected by clearing the chat area.
Tools -> Opacity is only available on Windows 2000/XP; if you are using an earlier operating system, this menu item will be disabled. It allows you to change the percentage of opacity of the window. Be forewarned that it takes additional processing to render a transparent window, so things may slow down when you change it, if you have an older computer.


{% extends 'layout.html' %} {% block pageTitle %} Tag draft guidance - Design system testing {% endblock %} {% block beforeContent %} {{ breadcrumb({ href: "/", text: "Home" }) }} {% endblock %} {% block content %}
Use the tag component when it’s possible for something to have more than one status and it’s useful for the user to know about that status.
Tags are just used to indicate a status, so do not add links. Use adjectives rather than verbs for the names of your tags. Using a verb might make a user think that clicking on them will do something.
Sometimes a single status is enough. For example if you need to tell users which parts of an application they’ve finished and which they haven’t, you may only need a ‘Completed’ tag. Because the user understands that if something doesn’t have a tag, that means it’s incomplete.
Or it can make sense to have two statuses. For example you may find that there’s a need to have one tag for ‘Active’ users and one for ‘Inactive’ users.
Tags should be helpful to users. The more you add, the harder it is for users to remember them. So start with the smallest number of statuses you think might work, then add more if your user research shows there’s a need for them.
You can use colour to help distinguish between different tags – or to help draw the user’s attention to a tag if it’s especially important. For example, it probably makes sense to use nhsuk-tag--red
for a tag that reads ‘Urgent’.
Do not use colour alone to convey information because it’s not accessible. If you use the same tag in more than one place, make sure you keep the colour consistent.
Because tags with solid colours tend to stand out more, it’s usually best to avoid mixing solid colours and tints: use one or the other. This matters less if you’re only using two colours. For example, it’s okay to use the tint nhsuk-tag--grey
and solid blue tags together if you only need two statuses.
If you need more tag colours, you can use the following tints.
All contrasts between text and background meet level AAA of WCAG 2.0. Read more about accessibility and colour.

Press release
Students and teachers benefit from £4.4 million rebuild as part of the government’s Priority School Building Programme (PSBP).
Hill Top Specialist Arts College in Gateshead had its official reopening ceremony today (28 November 2014), following a multimillion-pound rebuild.
The school’s existing dilapidated building has been completely rebuilt as part of the government’s £2.4 billion PSBP to address 260 of the schools in England in the worst condition.
Hill Top is a special school which has a strong specialism in the arts, gaining specialist arts college status in 2010. It is 1 of 32 schools being rebuilt across the North East of England under the PSBP - 5 school projects are already complete and are open, with 4 more currently under construction.
Thanks to the programme, pupils and staff are now benefiting from a new £4.4 million, fit-for-purpose rebuild comprising of specialist teaching areas, a new performance hall, sensory rooms and a post-16 facility.
Schools Minister David Laws said:
The official opening of the new building for Hill Top Specialist Arts College in Gateshead is a fantastic achievement. This is the fifth school in the North East to open as part of the Priority School Building Programme.
Delivering great new schools will help to build a stronger economy and a fairer society so that every young person can get on in life. Vital building work is taking place at schools in the worst state across the country. We are making excellent progress with 14 school buildings now complete and all 260 schools projects due for completion by the end of 2017.
I hope the new school facilities will provide an inspirational learning environment that will encourage every student to reach their full potential.
An event was held today to mark the official opening of the school. The rebuild was completed in just over 11 months. This was all made possible by a successful partnership between the school, Gateshead council, the Education Funding Agency ( EFA ) and the contractor Sir Robert McAlpine.
Becky Harrison, Executive Headteacher at Hill Top Specialist Arts College, said:
We are absolutely delighted with the new school build and feel the building will now truly reflect the high quality of teaching and learning, as well as further enhance it for pupils and staff. We know the new school will be a happy and healthy environment that will inspire all and further raise aspirations and achievement.
The new school enhances the opportunity for community use and we look forward to sharing this excellent provision with the local community, particularly as the landscaping is completed.
The government is determined to raise the standard of schools and the education they provide as part of its plan for education. The PSBP is building on the progress already made in delivering a more efficient, faster, less bureaucratic approach to building schools.
As of November 2014:
Given the success of the PSBP , the government has announced a second phase of the programme, worth around £2 billion. Applications are currently being considered and successful applicants will be confirmed by the end of the year.

This is the conclusion to my write-up of the awesome BSides SF CTF by MAD Security/The Hacker Academy. You can find the other parts here: Levels 1-2, Levels 3-4, Levels 5-7.
What I Learned
What I Wish I'd Done
Given that this was my first real-time CTF, I'm pretty ecstatic about doing well. The guys from MAD Security put together a great set of challenges with a variety of focus areas: information gathering, server exploitation, client exploitation, crypto -- and I suspect there would've been more if there'd been more time. I can't wait for the next one!

--- layout: post title: What is Enteprise Change Control? tags: - Application Lifecycle Management status: publish type: post published: true meta: _edit_last: '451289' --- Tool vendors love to talk about 'Enterprise Change Control' but what does that mean? Here are some attributes that I think define this label. Obviously there is further detail to be inserted behind each point (but hopefully all that will be revealed at OSDC)


This vignette demonstrates how leadr
improves the ensemble building workflow, and introduces some special ensemble building tools included in the package.
Let’s talk about two ensemble types1. The first is the averaging ensemble.
A set of models make predictions, and you average the predictions (or possibly the classification probabilities) to try to decrease the error.
Empirically, a better technique is blended or stacked ensembles:
Here, data is split into k-folds. The model is trained on each k-1 fold, and then evaluated on each holdout. Combined, each holdout set recovers the original data set. Then those holdout predictions are now a new feature to build included in an overall ensemble.
Let’s build an ensemble for the iris dataset, which is a multiclass classification dataset. Other packages such as caretEnsemble do not yet support multiclass ensembles, but leadr
provides some tools to handle this situation.
First, let’s build a list of models.
library(purrr)
library(caret)
library(leadr)
folds <- createFolds(iris$Species, k = 5, returnTrain = TRUE)
control <- trainControl(method = 'cv', index = folds, savePredictions = 'final')
mapped_list <- map(
c('rf', 'glmnet'),
~train(
Species ~ .,
data = iris,
method = .,
trControl = control
)
)
We explicitly define the cross-validation index, because blending requires that each model is trained on the same set of folds.
We can also specify additional models using caretEnsemble
.
library(caretEnsemble)
ensemble_list <- caretList(
Species ~ .,
data = iris,
trControl = control,
methodList = c('rpart', 'knn')
)
models <- c(mapped_list, ensemble_list)
walk(models, board)
board()
#> # A tibble: 4 x 13
#> rank id dir model metric score public method num group index
#> <dbl> <id> <chr> <chr> <chr> <dbl> <dbl> <chr> <dbl> <dbl> <list>
#> 1 1. 2 models… glmnet Accur… 0.973 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 2 1. 4 models… knn Accur… 0.973 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 3 3. 1 models… rf Accur… 0.953 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 4 4. 3 models… rpart Accur… 0.947 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> # ... with 2 more variables: tune <list>, seeds <list>
We also want to evaluate the models that go into our ensemble. In general, we want to use two different criteria.
First, we want to maximize accuracy, as measured by the 5-fold cross-validation that we build our models on. Second, we want to minimize the prediction correlation. Suppose two sets of model predictions have similar accuracy scores, but are not correlated. This means that each model learned something different about the dataset, and an ensemble could combine those different understandings.
Here are some caret
functions to look at those criteria:
results <- resamples(models)
summary(results)
#>
#> Call:
#> summary.resamples(object = results)
#>
#> Models: Model1, Model2, rpart, knn
#> Number of resamples: 5
#>
#> Accuracy
#> Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. NA's
#> Model1 0.8666667 0.9666667 0.9666667 0.9533333 0.9666667 1.0000000 0
#> Model2 0.9333333 0.9666667 0.9666667 0.9733333 1.0000000 1.0000000 0

#> rpart 0.85 0.90 0.95 0.92 0.95 0.95 0
#> knn 0.85 0.95 1.00 0.96 1.00 1.00 0
modelCor(results)
#> Model1 Model2 rpart knn
#> Model1 1.0000000 0.8669214 0.8846517 0.9355852
#> Model2 0.8669214 1.0000000 0.5345225 0.6416889
#> rpart 0.8846517 0.5345225 1.0000000 0.9861169
#> knn 0.9355852 0.6416889 0.9861169 1.0000000
splom(results)
Some of our models are correlated, which is to be expected for a simple data set.
The next step as described in the introductory diagram, is to create a new feature for each model from the out of fold predictions. leadr::oof_grab
does this automatically:
blended <- oof_grab(models)
blended
#> # A tibble: 150 x 5
#> value value1 value2 value3 Species
#> <fct> <fct> <fct> <fct> <fct>
#> 1 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 2 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 3 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 4 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 5 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 6 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 7 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 8 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 9 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> 10 setosa setosa setosa setosa setosa
#> # ... with 140 more rows
Now we fit a final ensemble model on the blended
data:
ensemble <- train(Species ~ ., data = blended, method = 'rf', trControl = control)
ensemble
#> Random Forest
#>
#> 150 samples
#> 4 predictor
#> 3 classes: 'setosa', 'versicolor', 'virginica'
#>
#> No pre-processing
#> Resampling: Cross-Validated (10 fold)
#> Summary of sample sizes: 120, 120, 120, 120, 120
#> Resampling results across tuning parameters:
#>
#> mtry Accuracy Kappa
#> 2 0.96 0.94
#> 5 0.96 0.94
#> 8 0.96 0.94
#>
#> Accuracy was used to select the optimal model using the largest value.
#> The final value used for the model was mtry = 2.
Then we can add it to our leaderboard and see how it compares to the individual models. We’ll also take advantage of the dir
argument of board
. Saving this model to a new directory called ensembles
allows a natural grouping of the baseline and ensemble models.
board(ensemble, dir = "ensembles")
#> # A tibble: 5 x 13
#> rank id dir model metric score public method num group index
#> <dbl> <id> <chr> <chr> <chr> <dbl> <dbl> <chr> <dbl> <dbl> <list>
#> 1 1. 2 models… glmnet Accur… 0.973 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 2 1. 4 models… knn Accur… 0.973 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 3 3. 5 ensemb… rf Accur… 0.960 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 4 4. 1 models… rf Accur… 0.953 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> 5 5. 3 models… rpart Accur… 0.947 NA cv 10. 1. <list…
#> # ... with 2 more variables: tune <list>, seeds <list>
leadr
provides some tools to help build the ensemble, as well as keeping track of the results. We can also use the dir
argument of leadr::board
to create natural groupings in the leaderboard, such as base models versus ensembles.


NO-STATUS
Click and drag in the red box below.
The mouse tracking and updating
are implemented using simple C++ in the
hello_spider.cpp
file. See the
Paint
method for the code that generates the black dot, and the
HandleInputEvent
method for tracking the mouse position. On every mouse
event the mouse_loc_x_
and mouse_loc_y_
member variables are
upated from the event information passed in by the browser. Then a call to Paint
is issued. Paint
walks all pixels, computing the distance from that pixel
to the point <mouse_loc_x_, mouse_loc_y_>
, clipping this distance value to no
more than 255. The red component of the pixel in question is then set to this distance, and the
other components (green and blue) are set to 0. Once the entire bitmap is painted this way
it issues a call to display the bitmap.


“You never have to change anything you got up in the middle of the night to write.” - Saul Bellow
Navraj Narula, Daily Free Press
Two decades ago, it may have been easy for one to guess a person’s major based on gender. Fast forward to the 21st century, and it’s not so easy. Statistics from the National Girls Collaborative Project in 2011 show that 50.4 percent of science and engineering bachelor’s degrees were earned by women. After graduation, however, the statistics are less promising. In the same year, the U.S. Department of Commerce found that 1 in 7 engineers are female. Though there has been progress, the conversation regarding women in STEM — science, technology, engineering and math — continues on in 2015, even in highly progressive and well-educated cities such as Boston.
David Miller, a graduate student of psychology at Northwestern University, found in his research, published Feb. 17 in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, that science and engineering fields no longer leak more women than men in the bachelor’s-to-Ph.D. pipeline.
“[The leaky pipeline metaphor] is the idea that women are more likely than men to leave science at multiple points after entering college,” Miller said. “Although this idea is commonly used to help understand gender differences in pursuing these fields, there’s been little evidence of gender differences in some of these transitions.”
By looking at two large samples of college graduates in the United States, Miller said he was able to understand how these transitions took place over time.
“Although men were more likely to go on and earn Ph.D.s in these fields in the 1970s and the 1980s, the gap [in terms of persistence rates] closed in the 1990s. So, this idea of the leaky pipeline is no longer accurate,” he said.
Miller said men still outnumber women by 3-to-1 in what he labels pSTEM fields: physical science, engineering, technology and mathematics. However, he said that this is better explained by differences in college major choices and not persistence after college, due to the fact that women’s representation in pSTEM fields at the Ph.D. level is higher than it is at the bachelor’s level.
Pamela Templer, an associate professor of biology in Boston University’s College of Arts and Sciences, said she started out as a music major in college, but quickly realized that although she was passionate about the subject, she wanted a career that was different.
“I tried to get as much hands-on experience as possible as an undergraduate at the University of California so I could see what different careers are like. I enrolled in a ‘Natural History of California’ semester where we backpacked throughout the state of California to learn about the natural history and management of many different ecosystems,” she said. “I then was a [Research Experience for Undergraduates] student at the [Cary] Institute of Ecosystem Studies for a summer in New York state where I learned how to conduct research. I also studied in Costa Rica for a semester to learn about tropical biology.”
Together, Templer said, those experiences made her realize just how much she loved to learn about the inner workings of forest ecosystems. At BU, she is teaching a class for the spring 2015 semester about forest ecosystems and said the number of female students is higher than the number of males in the class. In regard to gender bias surrounding the topic of women in STEM, Templer said the ratios are starting to improve, but said there are still more men than women in higher positions.
“While there are generally equal numbers of female and male Ph.D. students, there are more male professors at senior level positions,” she said. “We need to do more to encourage women to get into STEM fields and to stay in them through their careers.”
Miller said it is encouraging to see the gender persistence gaps closing at the Ph.D. level. However, he said it is a concern that persistence at the bachelor’s level has been decreasing. A solution, he suggests, would be to place more emphasis on encouraging women to pursue science and engineering fields earlier in their education.
“My alma mater, Harvey Mudd College, encouraged women to join computer science fields … Harvey Mudd’s president, Maria Klawe, led these efforts,” Miller said. “For instance, course revisions emphasized how computation can be used to help solve social problems such as climate change or modeling of infectious diseases.”
Samantha Karam, a sophomore in CAS studying computer science, said her father works with computers and that he has encouraged her interest in his work.
“I have always been drawn to math and logic,” she said. “Also, with computer science, I get to see all of my efforts pay off in the most tangible way. The gratification from making a program run correctly is unbeatable. Computer science [seems] like the perfect fit.”
Flor de Maria Blaszczyk, a post-doctoral research assistant in CAS, specializing in neutrino physics and proton decay studies for the physics department, said she discovered her perfect fit in a quantum mechanics lecture class.
“When I was an undergrad [at University of Paris XI in France], I had my first quantum mechanics lecture. It was puzzling, but it made me want to understand more,” she said. “I had a seminar given to me by a female professor, and she was very passionate about neutrinos. I don’t know if it is the fact that she was female, or the topic, or both, but it lighted a spark in me. It was such an interesting particle, and I had to learn more about it.”
As a female physicist, Blaszczyk said there has been a slow increase of women in STEM.
“From what I discussed with other women, they seem to be intimidated. ‘Why did you choose that? Isn’t that a field where there are only guys?’ I don’t know if it’s something social or something you see on TV. There is some sort of subconscious image that physicist are guys, and biologists are girls, but I don’t know where that comes from,” she said.
Despite potential gender biases that may hinder women’s progress in STEM fields, Miller said it is essential for others to become more aware of topics surrounding diversity in science and engineering fields.
“Understanding and changing potential gender biases should remain an important goal for educators and policy makers,” he said. “Gender equality in numbers doesn’t necessarily mean gender equality in opportunities.”

Following a 5-4 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to legalize same-sex marriage across all 50 states, Boston-area residents celebrated Friday night at the Massachusetts State House at a gathering co-hosted by various organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union and the Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders.
Those in attendance waved small flags featuring rainbow colors and the equality symbol. Many brought their partners and children, cheering in celebration of the occasion.
U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, one of several leaders who spoke on the State House steps, wore a rainbow feather scarf and commended the state of Massachusetts for starting a revolution.
“We started it here and it spread across this nation,” Warren said. “Eleven years ago, we brought equality to this country. This is a moment of celebration and of love … a moment in which we say we understand equal means equal all across this country. I look at this way: eleven years ago Massachusetts, today U.S.A., and tomorrow the whole world.”
Massachusetts was the first state to recognize same-sex marriages in 2004.
Boston Mayor Martin Walsh expressed support for the Supreme Court decision and called it a “victory for democracy, for family, for community and for love.”
“This decision marks a milestone on our nation’s journey to become a more perfect union,” he said in a Friday statement. “I honor Jim Obergefell and all the plaintiffs and advocates who fought not only for their own rights but for the rights of all Americans to marry the person they love and enjoy equal protection under the law.”
Rev. Irene Monroe spoke to the crowd about how every committed relationship deserves the right for public recognition and legal protection and reminded those gathered that the Supreme Court decision does not completely end inequality.
“After today’s landmark decision, [groups] are working on a 50 state plan to pass religion freedom restoration acts to legalize discrimination against LGBTQ people and trying to roll back the progress we’re working on,” she said. “We’ve already seen in states like Louisiana, North Carolina and Michigan to name a few.”
Several Boston-area residents expressed varying views about the impact the Supreme Court decision will have on the nation.
Sandra Musique, 38, a representative from the Boston Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, said she came to the celebration to show solidarity for the gay community and recognize the effects of the decision.
“In Massachusetts, it’s hard to see an instant difference, but the fact that I can go anywhere and be married? That’s cool,” she said. “But I am more concerned about people who were in places like Ohio or people in states where it’s been banned like Colorado. They can now live their lives the way they see fit without interference from bigots.”
Renate Pyhel, 57, of Cambridge, said she is proud to celebrate the gains so far for human rights, but also apprehensive about the future.
“I tremble with trepidation that there will be challenges to it [the decision], but it will endure,” she said. “They [those against gay rights] will try to whittle away using the pretense of religious freedoms. There have been cases like the Hobby Lobby where corporations have maintained their latitude at certain matters is allowed by their presumed religious freedoms.”
Ariel Valdes, 24, of Lynn, said she is excited for the future generation to come.
“It’s going to affect the [LGBT] community positively,” she said. “Many youth will see the support that marriage [has made]. It’s such a happy day for many people.”

Charles Stith, the director of Boston University’s African Presidential Center and the former U.S. ambassador to Tanzania, held a press conference Friday to explore the reasons behind the center’s closure and elaborate on its mission.
The center will close its doors on June 30, The Daily Free Press reported on April 22. At the time of the announcement, BU spokesman Colin Riley said the reason behind the closing was a financial one. The APC, which operates off grants and funding from external entities, was not able to raise enough money over the past year to stay open, Riley said.
Stith said BU President Robert Brown’s administration was actually aware of the center’s closing earlier than this academic year. At the press conference, Stith read an email he received April 16 from someone he identified as a high-ranking BU official.
“‘You brought something of great value to BU, asking for very little in return. On the other hand, this is no great surprise,’” Stith read. “‘As you no doubt remember … I was personally offered “30 pieces of silver” to shut down your operation. I was utterly appalled … I am happy and a bit surprised that you were able to survive at BU for seven more years after the initial planned assassination of your program.’”
He also brought up BU’s claim that they reached out to the State Department to look for funding for the center. Stith, however, said he had never heard of the university doing that for the APC. Brown, Stith said, is closing the center because he believes that it is not worth maintaining.
“The issues raised relative to APC are just the tip of the iceberg. President Brown and the Board of Trustees have a decision to make,” he said. “Do they want to continue the charade that nothing is amiss and have the [plethora] of facts come to light, offense by offense, and drag the university through the mud, as well as [drag] the city and state? Or will they do the right thing and self-correct?”
Stith said the closing of the center is part of a greater trend in the leadership decisions at BU.
“While the focus of the recent coverage has been the closure of the African Presidential Center, I think it is important to understand that President Brown’s action against APC is reflective of [a pattern] of hostility and discrimination against the African-Americans that has typified his tenure as president,” he said.
Stith said there are fewer African-Americans in BU’s faculty today than in 1976, during which two percent were African-American. Additionally, Stith said, the university is not doing enough in offering admissions to African American students.
“This record is all the more egregious for an institution that numbers among its alums Martin Luther King Jr., Barbara Jordan and Edward Brooke and members of the Mandela family,” he said. “Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would be ashamed of BU’s record and we should too.”
Stith also addressed the controversy surrounding the tweets of Saida Grundy, an incoming BU sociology professor. He pointed out that she has apologized for her remarks as well as the distraction it has caused within the university. At this point, he said, Grundy has little power to affect BU in any way, while Brown does.
“Robert Brown … has an enormous amount of power,” he said. “I find it ironic that this very real threat to African-Americans at this university has not gotten nearly the national attention that a perceived theoretical threat to white interest has received … [African-Americans’] interests continually get treated as secondary in any discussion.”
Several students attended the press conference to show their support for the APC.
Jaimee McGruder, a sophomore in the College of Communication, said a lot of students are unaware of the existence of the APC.
“This university doesn’t really do anything to promote it or let us know it exists or what resources are here,” McGruder said. “I thought it was really important to be here to support it … to hear what their statement was.”
Amina Egal, a sophomore in the Sargent College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and a member of the People of Color Coalition, said she attended the conference to get a better glimpse of the issues that will be discussed in the future.
“I kind of wanted to know more information from the ambassador himself and the future of APC and what the university is doing to talk about this issue and what [the university] is going to be doing in the future,” she said.
Fatima Mohie-Eldin, a senior in the College of Arts and Sciences, said she was grateful to attend Stith’s talk, despite the fact that she is graduating.
“I’m leaving as a senior so a lot of people ask me why I’m still interested. It’s about what kind of school I’m leaving behind. How many other schools can say they have a center like this? I was so upset when I heard it was closing,” she said. “Even though I’m on my way out, I still want to show my support and I hope that it can stay open.”
